Don’t be incomplete in your daily walk! Be the kind of person Jesus wants you to be.
A Christian is the combination of GOD and you together and HIS Divine Intent for you to be led by HIS SPIRIT in all matters, not just a few.
Paul wrote by The Holy Spirit in Galatians chapter 2:
20 “My old identity has been co-crucified with Messiah and no longer lives; for the nails of his cross crucified me with Him. And now the essence of this new life is no longer mine, for the Anointed One lives His Life through me—we live in union as one! My new life is empowered by the faith of the Son of God Who Loves me so much that He gave Himself for me, and dispenses His Life into mine!
Jesus continues His ministry through those of us who are willing to believe His Words proclaiming this Truth.
Paul wrote by The Holy Spirit in Ephesians chapter 2:
4 But God still Loved us with such great Love. He is so rich in compassion and mercy.
5 Even when we were dead and doomed in our many sins, He united us into the very Life of Christ and saved us by His wonderful grace!
6 He raised us up with Christ the exalted One, and we ascended with Him into the glorious perfection and authority of the Heavenly realm, for we are now co-seated as One with Christ!
7 Throughout the coming ages we will be the visible display of the infinite, limitless riches of His grace and kindness, which was showered upon us in Jesus Christ.
8 For it was only through this wonderful grace that we believed in Him. Nothing we did could ever earn this salvation, for it was the gracious gift from God that brought us to Christ!
9 So no one will ever be able to boast, for salvation is never a reward for good works or human striving.
10 We have become His poetry, a re-created people that will fulfill the destiny He has given each of us, for we are joined to Jesus, the Anointed One. Even before we were born, God planned in advance our destiny and the good works we would do to fulfill it!
The above passage is the essence of Paul’s revelation for us so let us not treat these Words as commonplace.
Is the devil worried about you? If not, he should be.
It is written by The Holy Spirit in the book of Acts, chapter 19:
13-14 Now, there were seven itinerant Jewish exorcists, sons of Sceva the high priest, who took it upon themselves to use the name and authority of Jesus over those who were demonized. They would say, “We cast you out in the name of the Jesus that Paul preaches!”
15 One day, when they said those words, the demon in the man replied, “I know about Jesus, and I recognize Paul, but who do you think you are?”
16 Then the demonized man jumped on them and threw them to the ground, beating them mercilessly. He overpowered the seven exorcists until they all ran out of the house naked and badly bruised.
The key to this passage is that the exorcists did not know Jesus personally, they referenced Paul instead. As mature believers with the revelation of being Sons and Daughters of GOD, we should not be intimidated by demons. If we truly know and understand the power of The Blood and redemption, the demons will not challenge us. We know who we are in Christ!
We are the hope of the world so let us be the expression of Love toward others.
